Well it refutes one of your examples.

Without good sales in Japan localization is unlikely. But yeah, it's not the only factor of course.


Puzzles & Dragons: SME =/= Puzzles & Dragons Z.  They are two separate games.

And sadly the real one isn't coming. Well, I will buy SME, but only because I don't get the original.

Just play the game on your phone. It's free on iOS and Android in the West.

And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,

To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."

What?

We don't even know who is localizing it yet.  Nintendo had to localize Level-5's last game, despite it selling decently in Japan.                                     

Bamco is probably doing it, they'll want to keep their monopoly on anime related games, also rumor says they'll localizing a very succesfull japanese series, can't think of anything but Yokai Watch.

I find hard to believe that other but Nintendo is localizing or publishing the game outside of Japan. I would think that Nintendo wants to keep Level 5 happy so they keep YW on their consoles and their hardware sales in Japan stay healthy (or if YW becomes a hit in the West).



You know it deserves the GOTY.
